Not malicious??? Could you provide an example where this wouldn't be malicious and still somehow be useful? ;-) Quoting jg <jg573@xxxxxxxxx>: *> [1st off, my intentions are not malicious!] *> *> I want to have a Linux (RH 9) sytstem automatically *> rendered usless at a certain date or time. *> *> I'd also like to wipe out /home, /usr, logs, etc... *> And then reboot, but of course if things go ok, it *> should be toast after the reboot. *> *> I imagine I could create cron job that executes on *> such & such day & does something like: *> *> /bin/rm -rf /home *> /bin/rm -rf /var *> /bin/rm -rf /usr *> /bin/rm -rf /boot *> /sbin/init 0 *> *> Would that work? *> Is there is a better way to do this. *> *> Ideal setup will wipe the major useful parts of drive, *> reboot the system & just hang, rendered useless. *> *> __________________________________ *> Do you Yahoo!? *> Yahoo!
